The Doctor Posted 29 August 2010 Posted 29 August 2010 Will MacDonald get the job now? Couple of good home wins but equally two poor defeats. they were saying on commentary that he hasn't even put his name foward for the job.
Ultra Posted 29 August 2010 Posted 29 August 2010 Never a red, Lucas being a **** didn't really help though. TV showed Morrison went straight over the top. Good job Torres had strong shinpads or his career would be over. No question about a red card..
Head Honcho Posted 1 September 2010 Posted 1 September 2010 Villa seem to ba a bit light in the old striking department after naming their 25. Agbonlahor-Carew-Heskey ...............and only 2 keepers Also Carl Ikeme named in the Wolves squad.

Agbonlahor-Carew-Heskey ...............and only 2 keepers Also Carl Ikeme named in the Wolves squad. Delfounso? Bit short yeah but not awfully i'd say. Just read through Stoke's 25, bar 2 or 3 a very tidy looking squad built there.
StanSP Posted 1 September 2010 Posted 1 September 2010 When's the deadline for squads to be named? Midnight tonight?
Jimothy Posted 1 September 2010 Posted 1 September 2010 Delfounso? Bit short yeah but not awfully i'd say. Just read through Stoke's 25, bar 2 or 3 a very tidy looking squad built there. Delfounso is only 19, so he doesn't need to be in the 25. Teams can use as many under 21's as back up to the 25 as they like.
Jimothy Posted 1 September 2010 Posted 1 September 2010 Deadline's passed I think. Yeah I think it was 5pm today.
dandannieldanok Posted 1 September 2010 Posted 1 September 2010 I personally see no point in these new rules. What's their objective? The home-grown rule is flimsy, and you can still have a 25 man squad full of foreign nationals so it pretty much defeats the idea. 25 is a large number so you can still horde huge squads, especially as under-21s don't fall into the number. Please someone put me right if I'm missing something obvious or have stated something that is wrong. Just seems pointless to me.

Jimothy Posted 1 September 2010 Posted 1 September 2010 yeah but the point was that they only have 3 strikers to choose from. which they don't because of ND Ah sorry, thought you was expressing shock at him being left out.
sdb Posted 1 September 2010 Posted 1 September 2010 Ah sorry, thought you was expressing shock at him being left out. sorry for being snappy mate, bad mood

Please someone put me right if I'm missing something obvious or have stated something that is wrong. Just seems pointless to me. overall it is sort of pointless - The home grown rule says that you must have 8 players that have been registered with a club affiliated to the english or welsh fa (not scottish or Irish though by the looks of things) for 3 years before they turn 21. However these 8 can incude "foreigners" poached for overseas academys meaning Fabregas counts as homegrown. If you can't name 8 homegrown players then you have to operate with a smaller squad than the rest. The 25 man squad is meant to limit so that clubs then turn to youth if they have a injury crisis but i can't see 7 players registered as part of this 25 being injured at any one time or the club turning to their academy rather than playing the u21 players they've signed this summer and not registered to leave spaces open for over-21 signings.
Matt Posted 2 September 2010 Posted 2 September 2010 Arsenal name 7 'home-grown' players. 0 are English, or even British for that matter. The home-grown rule - Fail
Leicfox Posted 2 September 2010 Posted 2 September 2010 Wtf.........Just been listening to this simple ****er and his Premier league Preview. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TFDY0-KHRRE&feature=related
sdb Posted 2 September 2010 Posted 2 September 2010 ha Villa top 4, Stoke play lovely football, Drogba scores goals like Heskey, Hodgson - devious, arrogant. good stuff. can't tell if this is a piss take. some valid points some ridiculous.
ScouseFox Posted 11 September 2010 Posted 11 September 2010 Rooney left out of the United squad for game at Everton today.
Jimothy Posted 11 September 2010 Posted 11 September 2010 Everton playing two midfielders up front. That's an adventurous team selection!
ScouseFox Posted 11 September 2010 Posted 11 September 2010 Everton playing two midfielders up front. That's an adventurous team selection! Working quite nicely though...
MikeyT Posted 11 September 2010 Posted 11 September 2010 Working quite nicely though... Bit odd though considering they have Yakubu and Beckford on the bench.
ScouseFox Posted 11 September 2010 Posted 11 September 2010 Bit odd though considering they have Yakubu and Beckford on the bench. One of them's gotta come on now you'd think. Good turn around from United either side of the break.
